Loren Avedon

Loren Avedon's academic journey began with his high school graduation from Beverly Hills High School in 1980. Following this milestone, he pursued higher education while simultaneously taking up martial arts training at the Jun Chong Tae Kwon Do Karate school in Los Angeles. His dedication to the craft paid off when, during a late-night training session, he received an unexpected opportunity to audition for the starring role in No Retreat, No Surrender 2 (1987). Producer Roy Horan, impressed by Avedon's skills, offered him the part and subsequently signed him to a three-picture deal. This breakthrough role led to his subsequent appearances in No Retreat, No Surrender 3: Blood Brothers (1990),which not only honed his acting abilities but also cemented his status as a cult hero in Europe and beyond.
